Mark Harmon, beloved for his role as Jethro Leroy Gibbs on NCIS for 19 seasons, left the show last year but remains open to returning. He has been married to actress Pam Dawber for over 30 years, having met at a party and raising two sons together. Their eldest, Sean, followed Harmon into acting, while their younger son, Ty, works as a screenwriter.
Harmon shares a close friendship with Jamie Lee Curtis, though they never dated. He prioritized family over fame, stepping back from acting to be present for his children. Harmon and Dawber value their privacy, choosing a low-key life away from social media. Their long-lasting marriage, marked by deep love and mutual support, is attributed to their decision to marry young and keep their relationship private.
